Deep dives

Current Economic Indicators

Macro investors are currently analyzing bottom-up signals from companies, which reveal no significant signs of economic weakness in the short term, aside from potential stress in the housing market. Financial conditions remain loose, even looser than before recent Federal Reserve tightening, despite rising interest rates and a strong dollar. Concerns about the budget deficit are acknowledged, particularly the unsustainable nature of continually increasing debt-to-GDP ratios. However, the exact timing of any potential economic reckoning is unclear, with indications suggesting that issues may manifest around late 2025 or early 2026.
